In the history of mathematics, Ruslan Smeliansky is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Ruslan Smeliansky as Russian mathematician, Dr. Sc., Professor, a professor at the Faculty of Computer Science at the Moscow State University, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Ruslan Smeliansky was born at Moscow in 1950. His recorded nationality is Russia. He studied at MSU Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics.

Twentieth-century mathematics became abstract and highly specialised, and its methods reached into physics, economics and computing.

His academic posts were held at MSU Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics and Lomonosov Moscow State University.

Mathematical work is judged by whether anyone can build on it, and that judgement takes decades.

That the work was done from Russia matters: mathematical training, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
